Answer: you bought 9 burgers and 16 tacos

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of burgers that you bought.

Let y represent the number of tacos that you bought.

You buy a total of 25 burgers and tacos. It means that

x + y = 25

The burgers cost $3.50 each and the tacos cost $2.25 each. The total cost of the burgers and tacos that you bought is $67.50. It means that

3.5x + 2.25y = 67.5- - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 25 - y into 1, it becomes

3.5(25 - y) + 2.25y = 67.5

87.5 - 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5

- 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5 - 87.5

- 1.25y = - 20

y = - 20/ - 1.25

y = 16

x = 25 - y = 25 - 16

x = 9

Answers:
Wood Question: 860 millimeters
Heigh Question: 73 centimeters

Explanations:
Wood Question: You can get this result by doing 7.74/9 because you are dividing 7.74 meters into 9 pieces and you will get 0.86, AKA 86 centimeters. Then, you need to multiply that by 10 to convert it into millimeters and 86(10) is 860.

Height Question: First, you want to do 1.46/2 and you will get 0.73. 0.73 meters is equivalent to 73 centimeters, and since you know Jaxson is two times his sister's height, you know that you can leave it at that, therefore your final answer is 73 centimeters.
